Ingredients
-
1.5 litres Dry Cider
-
5 tbsp Calvados (or brandy)
-
400ml apple juice
-
75g dark brown sugar
-
Zest of 1 large orange, peeled into strips
-
6 whole cloves
-
2 cinnamon sticks

Directions
Pour the cider, Calvados, apple juice and sugar into a large, lidded pan.
Stir over a low heat, then add the orange zest and spices for a few minutes until it starts to boil.
Switch off your gas or electricity source, and place a tea towel at the bottom of your Wonderbag. Swiftly transfer your lidded pan into the Wonderbag, cover the Wonderbag with its fabric lid and secure by pulling the cord tightly. Allow the dish to cook undisturbed for a minimum of one hour.
